While the 1970s pop psychotherapy movement focused on the importance of letting anger out, more recent research suggests that there’s a smarter, healthier way to react to life’s slings and arrows; with forgiveness. In a recent study, it was found that when individuals were about to forgive, they experienced greater joy, a more profound sense of control over life and less depression. Sound appealing.
a)Why holding a grudge can be harmful?
Your boyfriend blows you off for an important date. If you stay angry at him, you’ll probably get fresh flowers on your doorstep and maybe a fancy meal or two. But grudge-holding only gives us the illusion of power. If you hold on to that anger on a chronic basis, then it has power over you, eating away at your peace of mind and perhaps even your immune system. A study by Kathleen Lawler, Ph. D., a psychology professor at the University of Tennessee, confirms that people who are unable to forgive report more stress in their lives, more illness and more visits to the doctor than do forgiving folk.
b)Going from a grudge to forgiveness
A few ways to develop your capacity to turn the other cheek—Try writing a daily "forgiveness" reminder in your journal; it may sound corny, but it’s a great way to help gain control over your emotional life. — Write a letter to your offender, detailing exactly what’s bothering you. Then toss it. You’ll feel better, even if your message never reaches its intended target. —What, exactly, makes your blood boil? Forgiveness isn’t about swallowing anger or being a doormat It’s not about forgetting, either. On the contrary, it’s about acknowledging an offence with your eyes wide open—and then releasing the anger. That means conjuring unempathy toward the person who hurt you, then focusing on the good parts of your life.
c)An act of courage
Still not convinced that it’s worth it to put your energies toward forgiving? Besides the benefits to your psyche and physical health, true forgiveness is a sign of strength and soulfulness. "It takes a lot of moral muscle to forgive," says Dr. Witvleit of Hope College in Michigan. The bottom line: Forgiving ultimately benefits the forgiver more than the person who has done wrong. So start putting your own well-being first, and live life with as much interest and love as you can.
According to the passage, if you keep feeling angry for a long time,
选项
A、the one who has done wrong will keep sending you presents.
B、the one who has done wrong will ultimately apologize to you.
C、you will have power over the one who has done wrong to you.
D、you will gradually lose control over your mind and your health.
答案
D
解析
题干的关键词for a long time是原文第3段第4句中on a chronic basis的同义替换,由文中的eating away…of mind和…immune system可知D符合题意。
